Hello,
in case IPFA is not what you need, I have developed a simple accounting system using Linux-standard ipchains.

I simply defined kernel accounting rules which log incoming and outgoing packets for all relevant subnets.
I also have a Perl script which is run in  a cron job every hour, logging the values of the counters into a file,
and another script, run once a month, which outputs a summary.

Currently this package is not very general, because it has many hardcoded values specific to our site.
If there's interest, I could make a more general version.

I think you'd better check IPFA first, because it looks like a more general and powerful tool.

Regards,
			Didier
